repo management

[neoice]

many modules will provide repo management, often with a true/false parameter to allow overriding.

currently, this module appears to do no repo management.

is this something in-scope for your project?

[neoice]

in fact, I'm not even sure there are repositories for these packages yet!

[cristifalcas]

The only repos I am aware of are fedora ones and centos extras. Do you want a flag to enable the repos? I could add this if you need it.

[neoice]

it's probably an important feature for Puppet management of kubernetes. I decided to use the Kubernetes "hypercube" Docker image since it's one-stop shopping for all the kubernetes functionality.

I doubt my org is going to stop using Puppet, but it looks like for the near-future, it's not ready to manage Kubernetes completely :(

[cristifalcas]

I'll keep this in mind. I will try to fix it as soon as I have some time.

Which repo should I configure for Debian? I can't locate packge kubernetes-node:

root@k8s:~# puppet apply --modulepath /etc/puppet/modules kubernetes-puppet.pp
Warning: Config file /etc/puppet/hiera.yaml not found, using Hiera defaults

I couldn't find any debian/ubuntu repositories that have kubernetes packages.

[jangaraj]

I've found one: https://github.com/kismatic/kubernetes-distro-packages:

root@k8s:~# apt-cache search kubernetes
kubernetes-master - Kubernetes master binaries and services
kubernetes-node - Kubernetes node binaries and services

However it's not compatible with this puppet module: I can't install master and node package, kubernetes-client is missing.

[cristifalcas]

From what I can see, that is not a debian repo. It will install kubernetes from a git repo.

[scoopex]

What is currently the way to go to use this module on Ubuntu 14.04 or 16.04?

@jangaraj is right - the kismatic package repo does not know a kubernetes-client package and kubernetes-master and kubernetes-node create conflicting directories.

Seems Debian is the ONLY distro to have these packages.. :( Not even Ubuntu has them. Is this only tested on Debian versions? It would be nice to know (in the README) where this module is tested to work
